sick princess

"Master, madam, the young master is awake." The servant who came to report the matter was brisk, and his tone was full of joy.

An Guogong and Mrs. Guo were overjoyed when they heard the words.Although the imperial physician had said that Lan Chengyu had no fear of his life and would wake up in a day or two at most, they still couldn't stop worrying.Lan Chengyu's body was strong since he was a child, and he seldom got sick, let alone suffered such serious injuries. It was really difficult for them to get used to their son lying on the bed with a weak face.

The couple only have one son, so it goes without saying how much they value Lan Chengyu.As soon as they received the news, the two rushed to Lan Chengyu's room impatiently.

Lan Chengyu just woke up slowly, and was staring at the ceiling in a daze.Due to the loss of blood, his face was pale and he looked weak, but his overall condition was much better than that of Baoluo.

"Chengyu, you're awake. If you don't wake up again, I'm afraid that Auntie will rush into the palace herself to find out the culprit who caused your injury." Mrs. An Guogong spoke first.

"It's good to wake up, it's good to wake up." Duke An, who has always been calm, said this sentence twice in a row, which shows how excited he is.

Lan Chengyu rolled his eyes, following the words of Duke An and Mrs. Guo, he finally remembered what happened to him.

No matter how precocious Lan Chengyu was, he was still just a child. When he thought of that scene, he couldn't help but tremble all over.

"Baoluo...Princess Longevity, how is she...?" Lan Chengyu's immature voice was somewhat hoarse.

Mrs. An Guogong didn't expect that Lan Chengyu's first words after waking up would be to ask about Baoluo's situation, so she was startled.However, thinking that her son was injured just to save Baoluo, Mrs. An Guogong gradually felt relieved.

"Not good, very bad. Princess Longevity is still in a coma. The imperial doctor said that her body is getting weaker day by day. If she can't find a way to wake her up, I'm afraid..." She shook her head , A sigh crossed his lips.

When Lan Chengyu heard this, his breathing became a lot heavier, Mrs. An Guo quickly comforted her son: "I heard that the crown prince has already sent someone to invite the national teacher. If you can invite the national teacher, Princess Longevity will not be able to come if you want to come. It's a big problem."

"National teacher, isn't he in the capital?" No matter how smart Lan Chengyu is, he is still a child after all, and it is impossible to know the whereabouts of these famous people in the capital.

"If he was in the capital, I'm afraid he would be invited by the emperor to treat the princess early in the morning, right?" Lan Chengyu's mind was spinning quickly, and he was obviously very difficult to fool on this point.This pale consolation cannot frighten him.

Mrs. An Guo was at a loss for words, and after a while, she said: "Chengyu cares about Princess Longevity?"

"Well, she...is the most special person I've ever met, and I don't want her to die."

In Lan Chengyu's mind, the scene of what happened flashed across.

The little girl fell from a high place like a kite with a broken string. She looked so dazed and bewildered.There is not only the fear of death, but also a faint relief.

At that moment, Lan Chengyu was really thankful that Bi Yao found him in time. After hearing the information Bi Yao revealed, he rushed to the vicinity of Baoluo's location in time, and just in time before Baoluo was pushed down, Stand where you can catch her.

One ring after another seems to be full of coincidences, and only those who are in it can perceive the danger - as long as there is a mistake in any ring, Ji Baoluo may never exist in the world again .

"Princess Longevity really makes people feel distressed. Forget it, since Cheng Yu cares about her so much, our family should send some people to look for the national teacher. Although the national teacher has retired, he has been communicating with the emperor over the years, and his whereabouts are fairly fixed. At this point, we can provide the prince with some clues."

No matter how low-key the Lan family is, they are also the mother clan of the emperor, so they will naturally get some information that others cannot.

Hearing this, Lan Chengyu was not completely relieved, he just stubbornly held Mrs. An Guogong's hand: "Save her..."

"Understood, Auntie will do her best. In order to save Princess Longevity, you suffered such a serious injury. At least I can't let you suffer for nothing." Apart from his family, Lan Chengyu rarely cared about anyone like this.Mrs. An Guogong was a little surprised by Lan Chengyu's obsession with Princess Longevity.

If she remembered correctly, in the past, Lan Chengyu didn't like any of the princesses in the palace, saying that they were scheming at a young age, especially the Longevity Princess.

But Madam An Guo understood this quite well.Born in such an environment, if there is no trick and means, how can I survive?This time, doesn't the experience of Princess Longevity illustrate this point?

Chengyu doesn't hate Princess Longevity as much as before. It seems that she has really started to grow up, Mrs. An Guo thought.

Lan Chengyu got the assurance from Mrs. An Guogong, his mind relaxed, and he began to feel drowsy

He still has injuries on his body, and his body is already weak, so he naturally needs more recuperation.

"Don't sleep yet! I have something to ask you! Chengyu, do you still remember how Princess Longevity fell? Did you see the person who pushed her down?" An Guogong was concerned about his son, Apparently he hadn't forgotten about business.

"Now, the emperor is furious about this matter. If you know something, tell it as soon as possible, so that the person who harmed the princess will not go unpunished. That person acts so viciously, if you don't find him out, there will be endless troubles .”

An Guogong is clearly aware of his son's precocity.Therefore, when he spoke, he did not use the tone of coaxing children, but instead, he seemed to be communicating with his son on an equal footing.

"I really don't know who wants to kill Princess Longevity." Lan Chengyu stretched out a hand and put it on his forehead, with a look of pain on his face: "The steps are very high, I just want to I can see a vague figure..."

"Since that's the case, don't think about it anymore." Mrs. An Guo hurriedly stopped her and said, "The emperor is already trying the case. No matter who did it, he will be caught in the end."

"The imperial concubine...could it be her?" Lan Chengyu thought of all the efforts Baoluo had made to deal with the imperial concubine's lineage.Baoluo ruined so many good things for the imperial concubine, coupled with her natural hostility, it is really not surprising that Lan Chengyu would suspect the imperial concubine.

"It's hard to say. However, when everyone suspects that this matter is related to the imperial concubine, there are already problems in this matter." An Guogong took the opportunity to teach Lan Chengyu: "Never jump to conclusions before finding key evidence .”

At the same time, in the harem, the imperial concubine who was suspected by Emperor Zhaode also said something similar: "Because some time ago, Princess Longevity fell into the water in the concubine's palace, I don't know how many people in the palace suspect that the concubine is not used to it." The Longevity Princess is favored, and she has a black hand against the Longevity Princess. Even if the concubine really wants to harm the Longevity Princess, she will not pick this time to do it."

Emperor Zhaode was thoughtful, obviously, he had listened to these words, and it is unknown how much he believed.

"Then you can't say for sure. Maybe, the imperial concubine also knows that normal people think that you won't do anything to Princess Longevity at this time, so you just want to do the opposite. This is just a fight you made for yourself." Cover." Concubine Zhuang said.

"If the imperial concubine has no real evidence, it's better not to speak easily." The imperial concubine said.

Since Concubine Zhuang entered the palace, she has not dealt with her very much.Concubine Zhuang Gui relied on her family background to be better than her, and always wanted to avoid her.

In the past, she doted on the Sixth Palace, and when the family was dominant, Concubine Zhuang would at least maintain a respectful face in front of her.Now, the power to control the Six Palaces belongs to Empress Xu, and Concubine Zhuang Gui and Concubine Feng De are given the right to assist the Six Palaces. Concubine Zhuang Guifei's arrogance has become more and more arrogant, and she even dared to challenge her.

Thinking of this, the imperial concubine looked at Zhuang Guifei with a little chill in her eyes.

"If there is no real evidence for the imperial concubine, what the imperial concubine said is just the opinion of the imperial concubine's family, and it cannot be counted." Surprisingly, Empress Xu, who had been standing silently by the side, spoke up.

Before this, no one thought that this kind of thing would happen.

Empress Xu is weak-tempered and not holy, her sense of existence has always been extremely low.When Emperor Zhaode discussed things with the concubine, if she could not speak, she would never speak.

This time, Empress Xu became tougher than before. Thinking about it, she was also forced.

"Exactly. Did you hear what the Empress said?" Concubine Zhuang sneered and looked at Concubine Huang.

Although I don't know why Queen Xu's temperament changed drastically in a short period of time, but as long as this change is beneficial to Concubine Zhuang, Concubine Zhuang will not care.

"The empress's words, the concubines naturally dare not refuse to listen. But..." The imperial concubine looked at Emperor Zhaode in embarrassment: "All along, the empress has misunderstood the concubines. The empress is also good, Your Highness the Crown Prince Either that or Princess Longevity, they don't really like my concubines...the concubines really don't know how to resolve this misunderstanding."

This is to imply that Queen Xu is biased against her and cannot make a fair and just judgment.

"It doesn't matter if there is a misunderstanding or not. In the end, everything depends on the evidence." Empress Xu's face was indifferent, wondering if she understood the concubine's subtext.

"What I'm talking about is that the imperial concubine has nothing to prove, I'm afraid it's hard to prove your innocence." Concubine Zhuang was rather gloating.

Seeing that the verbal dispute was about to escalate, Concubine Feng Defei hurried out and said: "The most important thing now is to find out the whole story, sisters, don't worry, let's deal with this matter first."

She has always been a smart person, otherwise, she would not have lived with Concubine Zhuang as the fourth concubine when her family background was obviously inferior to Concubine Zhuang's.

"Because the queen mother's birthday is approaching, the emperor specially opened the warehouse and ordered the three eunuchs to send some rare treasures to the queen mother. When the three of them passed a tree, a wild cat ran out of nowhere. , so that one of them was frightened, his steps were unsteady, and he knocked down the other two, so the three of them scratched their belt together."

"Among the three, the one who knocked down the other two is naturally the most suspicious. But the man said that it was because the other tripped him that he bumped into them... The emperor and empress think, who is it? Lying?"

During the trial of the case, Emperor Zhaode already knew that the eunuch who knocked down the other two people belonged to the imperial concubine through the reminder given by the prince, and the eunuch who accused him of sticking out his foot to trip him was Concubine Zhuang's person.
